   “if you like what you heard from Ted Miguel today check out his book it's called economic gangsters and it's co-authored with another one of my favorite economists Ray fitzman if you buy the hardcover version you see my blurb right on the front and it perfectly captures my opinion of the book it reads rarely has a book on”
